I loved being able to exercise in a controlled environment

"I loved being able to exercise in a controlled environment"

About: New Stobhill Hospital / Pulmonary Rehabilitation

(as a service user),

Despite having a good foundation of knowledge of my lung condition, I still feel benefit from the patient talks. Sharon and Doreen were great and made me feel at ease.

I loved being able to exercise in a controlled environment. I have noticed the difference in my exercise tolerance over the past 8 weeks, and I have also lost 6kg weight.

Dear herondn86

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience on Care Opinion.

It’s wonderful to hear that, even with your strong understanding of your lung condition, the patient talks continued to offer you valuable support. We’re pleased that Sharon and Doreen helped you feel comfortable and at ease throughout the sessions.

It’s also great to know that exercising in a safe, structured environment made a real difference for you. Noticing improved exercise tolerance over just eight weeks—and achieving a 6kg weight loss—is a fantastic achievement, and you should be very proud of your progress.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be shared with the team. Knowing that these sessions are helping patients build confidence, understanding, and physical strength is incredibly encouraging.

We wish you continued success as you move forward, and we’re glad the programme has been such a positive part of your journey.

Kind regards

Kevin
